Lifting her arms Saf activated her shielding and her blades, giving Sgt. Garron the full light show. [color=bc8dbf]"Protective shields and what I think are variable-yield emitters in the gauntlets. I'm still getting a hang on those."[/color] As she explained the Warrant Officer tried imagining different sized blades and to her delight the long sharp beams shortened and widened, changing from what she thought of as lances to machetes and finally to shovels.

When she tried to pull them back further a gauge suddenly appeared on her HUD and the gauntlets whined for a moment before sending a wave of force up into the ceiling, leaving a noticeable dent in the armoured plating there. [color=bc8dbf]"Okay, and they can be overcharged to act as some sort of recharging ranged attack."[/color] She said, watching as the gauge slowly began to shrink.

Saf tried to activate her blades again but the emitters just glowed weakly for a moment before cutting out. [color=bc8dbf]"Gotta be careful with that though, seems it breaks the blade emitters at least for a short while, there's a gauge here that seems to be indicating the recovery time."[/color] Saf tapped at her faceplate to indicate to Sgt. Garron what she was talking about, as she knew the HUD was probably an internal projection not visible to others. [color=bc8dbf]"There's also some sort of rainbow strength gauge over here,"[/color] She continued, moving her hand to the other side of her helmet, [color=bc8dbf]"Which I think is something to do with the shielding. It flickered slightly while under constant attack by six training turrets, but I've no idea how much of an indication of actual shield strength."[/color]

Turning to look over Sgt. Garron's shoulder Saf called down the room to the Sabre standing at the locker beside hers. [color=bc8dbf]"Hey, Dr. Sigmund? You said earlier you were involved with the creation of these... systems,"[/color] She said, waving her hand down the front of the top-of-the-line, form-fitting, technological marvel of a cybersuit, [color=bc8dbf]"I was just wondering what the maximum protective power the shielding on my suit could withstand? In terms a soldier could understand, if you can."[/color]
